ABSTRACT

With the continuous development of science and technology, smart cities are becoming an important direction for future urban development. By utilizing advanced information and communication technologies, smart cities realize the intelligence of urban infrastructure, public services and management, thus enhancing the sustainable development of cities and the quality of life of residents. However, the traditional smart city model has some limitations, such as high construction cost and fixed infrastructure layout. Therefore, floating city, as an innovative form of smart city, has unique advantages and potentials. Floating city refers to a city model based on advanced mobile and wireless communication technologies that provides city functions and services to residents and users in a movable way. Compared with traditional fixed smart cities, floating cities have several advantages. First, floating cities are highly flexible and scalable. As its infrastructure and services can be moved and adjusted at any time, adapting to the needs of different regions. Second, floating cities can better meet the personalized needs of the people. Through mobile technology and smart devices, residents can enjoy more personalized services and conveniences to enhance their quality of life. In addition, floating cities can better respond to emergencies and disasters and provide flexible emergency relief and services. This paper explores the future development path of floating cities as smart cities by analyzing the current situation and trend of smart city development.
